All this means is basically that the kernel recognizes a java bytecode
file & will execute it by starting up the java interpreter.  It's
really no different than the way the kernel supports shell scripts
"natively".

There is no java interpreter or java anything else inside or "near"
the kernel, so there's nothing to extend for supporting "SilkVM"
bytecodes "in-or-near" the kernel.
